I was thinking that a/an would be represented by simply the letter A(original, yes I know XD) with the difference being a simple ‘a’ for a, and ‘á’ for an.
‘The’ would be Ech, pronounced throatily, like Ecchh in the back of your throat -

All of the above, but maybe the focus should be on the system since I have no shortage of good words.
again, thanks for helping me, I know I’m not the easiest person to work with, I hardly explain anything well, and am a little scattered

So I remembered your question about Tolkien. It’s a clean movie for the most part, other than the fact that one guy is perhaps what one would call a ‘man of the world’ and he’s also an artist so you could see some paintings that may or may not have scantily clad figures but it’s hard to make out and nothing explicit at all other than a brief gla…[Read more]

have you seen Tolkien? It’s honesty one of my favorite movies.
Contrary to popular opinion, I actually loved the Hobbit movies, and while I realize they are completely different than the book, if you can take them at face value they are awesome. In my mind
@joelle-stone yeah I agree. So many kids nowadays are f…[Read more]

Or maybe it should be ‘the object of’ to signify the noun. Perhaps that would make more sense

No that’s extremely helpful. I might do some of the words that way, but I’m kinda trying to do it….maybe….more artistically than Latin. I admire Latin, I enjoy hearing Gregorian chants in Latin, but when I think of Latin, I think of a dry, earthy language. As I mentioned before, this one is meant to be silver-y, or smooth, if you know what I m…[Read more]

I guess what I’m doing is finding meaning of words. The beauty of language is not the words themselves or what if they sound cool, it’s what they mean. The meaning gives beauty. I’m just trying to find the meaning behind some of these words. I may not have a system, but I’m starting with just a simpler approach for now.

That’s kind of why I need help because I’m at a loss of what a system should look like. I guess I don’t intend to make this a language that is grammatically perfect, I just need it to be good enough for my purposes.
what system would I use? Enlighten me friends:)

@joelle-stone well I can’t speak for any school other than mine, but the kids there are so indifferent and choose to care about nothing other than that which satisfies their carnal appetites, which is my fancy way of saying if your interested in anything productive, artistic, or related to making something of beauty, you will probably be met w…[Read more]

So the language is the historical one mainly used in older days, but will become a significant part of the story. It focuses on Abner, the heir to the throne of Arhon, who finds himself in the midst of national disaster when his country is invaded by an evil king who is notorious for making a sword out of the blood of his enemies. He must battle…[Read more]

So I have, and I am no philologist, but I guess what I’m doing with the language is trying to find major grammatical pieces, and to get the bulk of nouns, and adjectives made, and then actually get into the more complicated stuff, but I do have one thing. The sentence structure.
the sentence structure, which is conducive to shorter sentences i…[Read more]

So after toiling for approximately the better part of a week, I have come up with the grand total of nine words, which translate out to key words in our English grammar.
Escalas- Blinding, brilliant light. Indescribable glory, irresistible beauty, awe inspiring greatness
Narcimus- Death, that which takes life, when I think of this word, I get…[Read more]

Thanks! You can call me Peter!
It was a wooden bow, recurve I think.
School has been crazy for me too. Life has been, actually. I’ve gone to public school for the first time, just taking classes, and it is one of the most depressing places I know of. But God has used it mightily in my life to bring me closer to Him.
Yeah, I really love B…[Read more]
